BAföG
BAföG is a state-funded support scheme for students. One half is a grant, the other an interest-free loan. In total you need to repay only 50% of the resulting sum after graduation. In principle, all students of German nationality have a legal right to BAföG funding. But students from abroad can also receive educational grants, under certain conditions – so find out! The BAföG office is located in the Student Union at Würzburg. For details on the award criteria and applications you can go to the website of the Student Union:www.studentenwerk-wuerzburg.de
